Looking For Old Rads (still)

Mike T., Swampeast MO

You, sir, are a gentleman in the sense of:

(2) : a man irrespective of social status having chivalrous qualities : a man whose conduct conforms to a certain standard of propriety or correct behavior <being a gentleman, he rose and gave the lady his seat> <no girl should go out with that man; he's no gentleman> <a gentleman will never let you down -- Katherine F. Gerould> <the law of the land requires an officer of the United States armed forces to be a gentleman -- Time

1) U.S. Capitol. 6-tube about 23" high. MUST have one TALL LEG end section. Only need about 6-8 intermediate sections.

2) U.S. Capitol. 5-tube about 38" high. Need BOTH TALL LEG end sections and 10-12 intermediates.

3) American Radiator. Two-section "X-Ray" panel radiator.

Will work/pay/trade/barter in any way to get these. I have an unusual "cube" radiator suitable for steam or hot water. Also have a fair number of common decorative radiators and pieces of U.S. Capitols. Would custom bronze and give up much of my collection for the X-Ray alone--would even travel within 150 miles to remove, strip and custom bronze a couple rads during the non-heating months.

I'd love to see pictures of your rads. Unfortunately this is a feeble attempt at a threadjack. Still I'd like to see your finished rads.

See under radiators/heat/plumbing for finished rads in my house. You'll see some rads under "Inside the House" as well.

For the evolution of an old rad see these "Hot Tech Topics" here at Heating Help.

If a woodworking plumber could ever be a bohemian de-facto gentleman lacking noble birth that would be me.
